The year always starts with one of the most important conventions of the adult industry. The X3 Expo is a massive event where the porn stars, directors, producers, and other people working hard all year are coming together for networking, knowledge exchange, and partying. At the end of these three days, the most talented, hardworking, and popular porn performers and creators are getting the recognition they deserve, along with all the general public’s attention. But not everyone keeps an eye on this event, which is why we selected the most important categories and their respective winners.
Muse 2 by Deeper and Maitland Ward Are The Big Winners Of 2022
Something interesting happened this year. In case you’re not familiar with the XBIZ awards of the last year, the title for the best movie went to Muse by Deeper. So, many porn fans thought they were having a deja-vu when they announced that the best film of 2022 is Muse 2.
We’ve had porn stars winning two years in a row, and even directors achieving such performance but never did we have the second installment of the same movie take the high price of the industry.
However, it’s not a surprise. If you’ve watched either of these films, you already know that everything from porn stars and their performances to cinematographic techniques, costumes, and settings were all on point. The film is coming with five sex scenes. The first and last one focuses on Maitland Ward in crazy group sex performances. The film’s third scene is also impressive. Tiny Asian star Lulu Chu getting absolutely ravished by black male performer Anton Harden.
Muse 2 was also awarded for best screenplay and cinematography, while Maitland Ward also received the award for the best acting in a leading role and the performer of the year award. And Deeper also got the title for the best erotic site of 2022.
Emily Willis Wins
Female Performer Of The Year… Again!
At only 23 years old, this petite babe not only managed to keep up with the expectations set by winning the last year’s title. She actually outdid herself and won again this year. Nobody contested this cute little girl, especially after the insane interracial and double penetration scenes that came out in 2021.
It’s not clear which performances convinced critics to choose her again for this award. Still, since Deeper is the absolute winner of this year, it might well be the four performances she had on this site, two of which are MMF with double penetration and one an FFM with Maitland Ward and Mick Blue.
Mick Blue Is The Male Performer Of The Year
We’re not into porn conspiracies, but it seems like all the best performers are interconnected this year. So, it was logical that the man who fucked both the best performer and the best female performer of the year in a scene for the best site of the year would also get an award. The scene I’m talking about is called Mistress Maitland 2: Safety In Numbers from Deeper. It can stand as proof for whoever wants to contest the victory of Mick Blue over all the other nominees. On top of that, Mick Blue didn’t only win because of this one scene. He also won for his excellent run in 2021, which comes after 25 years of porn and 4,500 scenes. He’s the Leonardo DiCaprio of porn. It was about time to win a significant award from XBIZ.
Alexis Fawx Is The Best MILF Of The Year
The fight for the title of this category was between Cherrie DeVille and Alexis Fawx. Cherrie also won the same award last year, and she had great chances of winning. But it seems like Alexis became the public’s favorite because of the shift in step-mom and cougar porn trends. The men out there are no longer looking for the housewife type who keeps her lust hidden behind a warm smile. Everyone now is crazy for bad-ass cougars who dominate and who always ask their bulls to fuck them harder. And that’s how Alexis Fawx always performed. Digital Playground released an exciting FFM threesome featuring Alexis and Cherrie in which you can see who is the more hardcore MILF.
Kenzie Anne Is The Best New Performer Of The Year
Kenzie Anne took the industry by surprise. Even though she’s been in this business for a year, she’s already performed for the industry’s biggest sites and networks. But she’s far from being an industry plant. She has the looks, sex skills, and attitude of a veritable porn star diva. From Brazzers, Naughty America, and Bang to high-end performances for Blacked, Blacked Raw, Slayed, Vixen, and Deeper, the 28 years old newcomer has proven her worth across the industry.
There’s a lot more to unpack when it comes to the XBIZ awards. But these are the absolute winners, and they deserve having a post just about them. Keep an eye on them because the XBIZ is all about setting the trends for the year to come.
